Winter Willows - 45cm -

[b00f]

What's the terrarium like? :)

It isn't so much a terrarium' date=' as much as a holding place for my old plants, which are full of algae, and somewhere to keep a filter going...It is actually for sale.

Very cool room dude, but I can't help but notice there isn't any bedside tables..................yet, lol :victorious:Love the sink in the bedroom, very cool feature, lol :encouragement:

The terrarium is 45x45x60 and just happened to fit perfectly on top of.guess what my this 45cm tank is sitting on?You guessed it, the OTHER bedside table..I shall be pulling terrarium down, as it was a spare of the moment buy, and was a good, but very much over it. The sink is a great feature, It also has fittings on the wall for a shower, left to the door and in the corner between terrarium and 2ft tank, what I could only imagine what was a toilet.There is hot water line into the room, but for some reason, I do not think it is connected.

*cough*

New friends. Some super low grade CBS micshlings, stupid cheap, couldn't say no... their cute lil faces from the other

[Wraithie]

Haha don't blame you, nice pickup!

[b00f]

So... do I need to start a new thread oooooor?

These are the Cubes I am setting up...

I cant show the Willows Tank atm, as, well, let's just say, the plantation has been chopped down while the undergrowth(algae) gets undercontrol...

[Squiggle]

They look damn sexy! Can't wait to see them teeming with shrimp. :victorious:

Only thing, some ADA Bio Rio got in the right tanktank, no huge issue, just ugly..

The left tank

Gonna be a pain :(

That said, I cannot believe how nice they look now im sitting here looking at them running.

I am going to let these run their course, not rushing anything. My other tank, makes me cry,

90% water change and scrubbing the hell out of the glass with the filters off and hope to god it goes away

[b00f]

Might just leave this here.....

Emptied yesterday, refilled with RO

Newest additions.

RO water, Saltyshrimp Minerals, SS Caves, Beni Balls, Needle java, some moss

TDS is @ 220

Temp 23

Letting everything else settle

[BlueBolts]

Looks great ! Just be weary of the CO2 (PH & excess C02) and Beni balls (raises TDS)...

whats shrimps are you planning to have in there ?

[b00f]

It's empty at the moment BB, no stock, yet :P

Just waiting to get everything settled.

Just giving the plants a bit of a dosing of C02.. as I brought flourish instead of excel. :stupid: . there is some algae on ferns, just trying to loosen it off :P

Shrimp are still about 1 week away from going in, til then, they are chilling in the willlows tank.

So far, Red Rilli, CBS (mish) and SW are in the collection... going to have a bit of a play around..

[b00f]

So little bit of an update.

Replaced the front section of the tank with Malaya.

Going to help drop the pH a little, see how it pans out.

Planted HC in front section.

Put trees back in.

Here is a quick snap :)

[Squiggle]

Looking very cool dude, love the trees, well done! :victorious:

[Wraithie]

You have probably mentioned this already but what moss are you using in your trees?
